Is this the first ever complaint about a sales call?
We like to think that complaints about sales calls are something new, but it seems to have been going on for over 100 years.
Thanks to Carl Adkins from Infinity CSS for sending in this extract from the book Signor Marconi’s Magic Box.
If you can find any other examples please let us know.
